Chapter 28: Returning Home

"Lan Lan, where are you?" asked her mother anxiously on the phone.

"I'm at work, what's wrong?" "Your dad is going to have surgery, you should come to the hospital quickly." โ€

At the provincial cancer hospital, as soon as my mother finished speaking, I rushed over.

After asking about the ward, when I went over, my brother and sister-in-law were already standing next to me, as well as several of my father's brothers, my father looked haggard, his face was deformed, so thin that I couldn't recognize it, and his whole body became a handful of bones, only the big belly, because he is now in the stage of liver ascites, and it is often difficult to go to the toilet, and he can't pee all the time.

Seeing my father's thin appearance, my tears couldn't help but flow down, I didn't expect so many days not by my parents' side, my father turned out to be like this, in my memory, he has always been able to say and laugh, his body is very good, he loves sports, because in his concept of exercising more, it is to exercise, exercise can save money, my dear father, he said a lot of bitterness during this time, but he didn't tell me, in fact, every time my mother insisted on telling me, he was stopped, my father loved me like this, my daughter is really unfilialใ€‚

Dad saw me, pointed to the stool next to me, motioned for me to sit down, I sat down, held his thin hand, Dad asked, "Lan Lan, has your work been going well recently, hurry up and solve your marriage matter." โ€

Because my father knew that I was 26 years old, but at this time he was concerned about the marriage of his children, and his body was sick like this, and my tears couldn't help but flow, and parents have been worrying about their children all their lives.

"Marry as soon as possible," my father said heavily, and my heart was as uncomfortable as a knife

During this time, my family went to see a doctor, and I usually called home, and my mother told me that the family was very good and asked me to work hard, but I didn't know, they had already been to Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai, as long as they heard that they could treat this disease, they all went to try.

However, everywhere they went, the high cost of medical treatment discouraged them, and my father would shout to go home after a few days, saying that they were not good at medicine. In fact, I still feel sorry for money.

Later, I heard from a distant relative that a person from the same village had been cured, so my father went to the hospital they were talking about, which was the People's Liberation Army Hospital. But in fact, the hospital is deserted and dilapidated. Dad had a major operation in that hospital, leaving a big wound, and his brother was always by his side during that time.

Once my father coughed too violently, the wound shook open, and he suffered a second time, all of which my brother told me, but as soon as this operation was done, Dad's strong body completely collapsed. He was 1.75 meters tall, and in the end he only had less than 100 pounds left, except for his big belly like a basketball, and liver ascites developed to cirrhosis.

Dad finally realized the danger, but when he went to the hospital again, his memory was very unclear, and I accompanied my dad to a very famous hospital in our neighboring province.

At that time, although my father was slow, he could also walk and run, I went to the ATM with my father to withdraw money, my father explained my password again, and then when I went to withdraw money, he kept chattering in his mouth, I gently said to my father, read out the password, so that others heard that it was not safe

Dad stopped talking, but when he went to withdraw the money, he forgot the password, he got angry, and started to get angry, blame you for not letting me say that I forgot the password now, during this time Dad's memory is getting worse and worse, and his temper is getting bigger and bigger, and the doctor said that this is a strong liver fire.

After living in the hospital for a while, it was already a little difficult for my father to get up, he was lying on the bed at most every day, staring blankly at the ceiling, once, watching the TV series heroes and children, the scene of the reunion of father and daughter, Dad cried like a child, extremely sad.

Grandpa called his mother and said that his daughter-in-law was not good to her. Mom had to comfort her, put up with it for a while, Dad's health was too bad to take care of this. Because Dad is her most filial son.

Dad is the eldest and has always taken care of his grandfather, and the following sons, because they are overly pampered, don't have much affection for their grandfather.

Dad stayed in the hospital, and Mom took care of him every day.

And I, took a period of leave to take care of me, my father urged me to go to work, he said that he didn't want to delay my work, because my mother told him that I was doing a decent job outside, the leader attached great importance to me, my father didn't want to delay my future, I understood, I also left, just because I wanted to earn money, the family needs money every day in the hospital, thousands of dollars, a month, this is really a big burden.

After a few weeks we went home, because we could no longer afford to pay for the rest of the expenses, the high expenses.

The doctor prescribed medicine, and we were at home, giving my father infusions every day, believing that my father would get better day by day.

My mother's burden has also increased, her hair has turned a lot grayer, she takes care of a sick person, feeds medicine and food every day, and wipes her body. Looking at the hard mom. I don't think I can go on like this.

I left that city, the city with poplars and Lin Momo, I entrusted Lin Momo to Gao Ming, I believe that he can take care of our classmates for many years.

Back in my hometown city, I took the exam as a teacher. I was admitted very smoothly, firstly because I am a normal major, and secondly, my literary skills are already very solid.

My family was proud of me for a while, but I was assigned to a place far away from home, in a township junior high school, teaching Chinese.

As soon as the students were able to cope with the past, the days passed slowly, and they went home on weekends to help their mom take care of their dad.

At the age of 26, I am also a very embarrassing age in this small city, my colleagues are looking to introduce me to someone, and my seven aunts and eight aunts are also very anxious, every time they see me, it is not that my clothes are not young and beautiful enough, or that I don't pay attention to dressing up.

I know that they are all for my good, and they are also full of worries when they see me getting older year by year.

During this period, I met Qu Shuai. Qu Shuai is the son of an uncle's friend, and his family is very wealthy

We met that day, he came to see me at the school gate, and after receiving a call from my uncle, I came to the school gate, and saw that next to my uncle, there was a boy with a head of 1.70 meters, white and chubby, with a pointed nose, except for small eyes, a boy who could get by for everything, except for being fat and looking a little clumsy.

My uncle said to me, "This is Qu Shuai." โ€

"Hello," I stretched out my right hand, Qu Shuai also hesitated, stretched out his hand, and afterwards he told me that the first time we met, it was my girl's hand, which made him feel very embarrassed.

"Lan Lan, you talk to Qu Shuai, I still have something to do and leave first," my uncle said to me and left.

"Lan Lan, let's go to dinner," Qu Shuai opened the car door, very gentlemanly.

The car was a man tall, and I had a hard time getting up, and I learned afterwards that it was worth a lot of money.

"Lan Lan, what do you want to eat?" Qu Shuai asked with concern.

Anything, I politely said because the place where I teach is far away from the city, and I have classes in the afternoon, Qu Shuai took me to the town, the most famous restaurant, this town is relatively prosperous, because there is a gold mine, so here is like a small **, there is everything to eat, drink and play, everything, and the cars parked on the side of the road are all good cars.

It's like a gathering place for big bosses and rich people, and the prosperity of the town is better than our local small city.

Qu Shuai took me to a seafood restaurant, "What do you eat?" he asked me, and I said whatever.

"There's no casualness in the meal. Qu Shuai said humorously, the menu he took over,"

Hairy crabs, deep-sea lobsters, garlic shells, and Qu Shuai are all lit up.

I hurriedly stopped: "There is no need for so much, we don't want to waste it, I can't eat much." โ€

"Okay," Qu Shuai put down the menu, "What do you think of these ones?" he let me look at them, and I nodded.

The sun was shining through the window, shining on the clean tablecloth, and Qu Shuai sat next to me. How handsome is he in the sun? Mimi's little eyes also look a little cute, and my heart can't help but move a little, because I am taking care of my father these days. Looking at his hard-working mother, he was really tired, and he wanted to have someone to rely on, and Qu Shuai was indeed a good candidate, he was rich, his family was good, and he looked considerate.

When I was eating, Qu Shuai carefully cleaned my dishes and chopsticks in hot water.

Then he handed it to me, and during the banquet he took the initiative to pour water for me, like a gentleman's servant. Not at all like a rich kid, he is the kind of person who is gentle and very careful. After eating, he sent me back to the unit.

"I'll pick you up on Sunday," Qu Shuai said to me with a smile.

Seeing me go, he also drove home. He has work to do in the afternoon. Qu Shuai's home, which is the hotel, is a very famous seafood hotel in our local area. Upscale and famous.

And he, as a member of the family business. He's in charge of everything. The work of asking for accounts and the import of raw materials were all handed over to him.

The so-called accounts are all to go to some public units, because his hotel is a local public designated consumption unit, and because of his father's relationship, he is very familiar with some people in the unit, so he has this convenience, needless to say, the benefits are good.

In such a service environment as a hotel, of course, there are many waiters who are eyebrow-raising at Qu Shuai.
